So there can be no rights enjoyed by anyone that weren't conferred by a bunch of wealthy white makes, some of whom owned slaves, 250 years ago? Welcome to the US in the late 18th century - sorry, 2022.
Cope harder, lib.

80% of abortions happen in the first trimester. A large majority of Americans support first trimester abortions.
Considering this decision is just a political move — it seems to be a poor one.32 -

Eh, want an abortion? Go to another state.
It goes back to states rights. The country was founded on states having more rights and a less powerful central government. We've gone far from that since then.
While we're at it let states ban gay marriage, interracial marriage or anything else they deem morally questionable!
Alan
should states be allowed to bring back slavery too?
Oops!

Considering this decision is just a political move — it seems to be a poor one.It's closer to 90% and it's not "just a political move." This decision will have far reaching repercussions.

Considering this decision is just a political move — it seems to be a poor one.You’re errant in thinking that it’s a political move. Many conservatives see this as a political liability. But when it’s the right thing to do, you follow through and do it anyway.
And you’re correct that a large number of Americans support early abortion, but also a large portion support restrictions after the first trimester. Progressives were pushing for any time abortion on demand. The Supreme Court has appropriately sent the issue to states, where it belongs.

STOP LYING. Even the most republican states are going to allow abortions in cases where the mother's health is at risk. They will also allow abortions in the case of rape or incest.
What do people have against incest?
Plenty of posters in this thread have said they don’t support any exceptions. Let the mother and the baby die together.

The SCOTUS’ move is no more political than Roe itself was. On contrary, SCOTUS has said to states you do you, leave us out of this.

Nah. It’s pretty clear that the furor over abortion was manufactured by powerful evangelical politicians when they realized they were losing the culture war in the 90s. Only a slim minority of strict anti-abortion types (who are a significant minority of Americans) are religious enough to validly make “sanctity of life” arguments. Most are just standard barely-religious Americans swept up in a few decades of propaganda. Anyone who argues this was done “as the right thing to do” has swallowed the conservative oligarch messaging hook-line-and-sinker.

You don't realize how stupid this makes you look, which makes you look even stupider. Not calling you stupid. I would never call another poster on LetsRun.com stupid. But I will kindly and helpfully point out when a post makes someone look stupid. To help them of course.
Tell your side to stop rioting. You sore loser.

Some left wing states allow abortion up to the day before normal birth...This is inconcievable to anyone with a shred of Human decency....of which many liberals have none.

The SCOTUS decisions are always political. They operate in the political environment of the time.
There are majorities supporting 1st trimester abortion in every state. Politically, this is a problem, and even Trump admits as much.11 -

Well the right has killed 300k Americans in the last year alone with antivax propaganda. Let’s not point too many fingers…

Sure what not! I mean if that is what the states want!
Well NO....13th amendment *shrug*.
Let's just go all in on the constitutional requirement for all of our laws now.

Exactly this. They were losing the "war on homosexuality".

And it was somebody from your side that brought up slavery comparison. You won't call that person stupid.
Stop being so triggered, accept your loss and tell your side to stop rioting. Thank you.

Or they can accurately decipher the proper roles of the Supreme Court and legislative branch of government. You gotta take emotion out of this and look at it from a rational viewpoint. Hard for people to do now. But justice Alito summarized it well in his statement. Roe was legislation at the Supreme Court level. Dobbs gets rid of that overreach and allows the people to vote for representatives that reflect their view on the topic.
I think you’re the one who took the bait.
